The underworld is crowded with thieves, but Parker has always stood apart. Created by Donald Westlake in the early 1960s, the character has been portrayed on screen by actors including Lee Marvin, Mel Gibson, and Jason Statham. He's a blunt-force professional who isn't Bond, isn't Batman, but something rougher, hungrier, and coded by his own ruthless blue-collar sense of order. With "Play Dirty," filmmaker Shane Black takes his own crack at Parker, bringing the character to Prime Video on October 1 and casting Mark Wahlberg in the role. The film follows Parker, a ruthless thief, and his expert crew who stumble onto the heist of a lifetime that pits them against the New York mob. The film also stars LaKeith Stanfield, Rosa Salazar, Keegan-Michael Key, Nat Wolff, and more. This version doesn't come with gadgets or acrobatics. Black describes a Parker who thinks fast, hits harder, and feels closer to the blue-collar world than to the spy fantasy. It's the kind of material that lets him indulge his taste for pulp grit, sly humor, and the holiday backdrop he's made famous. But it also opens the door to some bigger questions: what draws audiences to men this uncompromising? How do you make crime fun without sanding off the edges? And what happens when you cast Wahlberg instead of Robert Downey Jr.?READ MORE: ‘All Of You': Brett Goldstein On Love, The Science of Soulmates, ‘Shrinking' Surprises, & ‘Ted Lasso' [The Discourse Podcast]Writer/Director Shane Black joins The Discourse to talk about the journey of bringing his Parker film to the screen, which started all the way back during the making of Black's first film, “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang” in 2005. When asked what itch hadn't been scratched by earlier adaptations, Black pointed to Parker's uniqueness. “Each one represents the era in which it was produced. 'Point Blank' with Lee Marvin is a very specific film for that time period. And each actor who's played Parker from there on, like Robert Duvall, Jason Statham, and Mel Gibson in "Payback." There has been a history of incarnations of this powerful, relentless character. But he's not James Bond, which is why I liked him. He's sort of blue collar. It's almost like an American entrepreneur's story. But he happens to be a really awful, bad person and a criminal anti-hero.”

#EP308What if you could slash your community's electricity costs by 40% while achieving true energy independence?AJ Perkins transformed from business executive to renewable energy pioneer, building 3.8 gigawatts of microgrid projects worldwide. In this Clean Power Hour episode, he reveals how community-scale solar and battery systems are revolutionizing energy economics.The breakthrough: AJ's team reduced payback periods from 7-11 years to just 18 months by combining solar, batteries, and grid services revenue. This creates a financial model that makes renewable energy irresistible to entire communities.Real-world results include:A 3,000-home Hawaii development using the "Utility Light" model where communities own their energy infrastructureAn Orange County mobile home park cutting electricity costs from 38¢ to 24¢ per kWh while adding AC for just 2¢ per kWhWhy thinking in clusters of 50-1,000+ homes creates economies of scale impossible with individual installationsTim and AJ explore the convergence of microgrids, Virtual Power Plants (VPPs), and infrastructure-as-a-service models that solve multiple municipal challenges simultaneously. They discuss California's public safety power shutoffs, utility partnerships, manufacturing reshoring, and practical strategies for scaling community energy projects.Key insight: Instead of protecting one family, AJ protects entire communities. His approach prevents the dangerous scenario where only one house has power during blackouts while neighbors remain in the dark.Whether you're a solar installer, utility professional, community leader, or clean energy investor, this episode provides actionable insights for building distributed energy infrastructure.

Kash Patel's FBI initiated a raid on the home of former National Security Adviser John Bolton for the alleged possession of classified documents. Glenn and Stu discuss the raid and the issue of the government classifying too many documents, while also advocating for government officials who take classified documents to be held accountable. Glenn and Stu go through the various doomsday descriptions that radical leftists like Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), Stacey Abrams, and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker (D) have used to describe Trump. Glenn reads the list of the woke terms Democrats are now being instructed to stay away from — the same terms they invented. A call from a listener inspired Glenn to discuss the struggles faced by the current generation as the economy continues to worsen. Elon Musk has announced that he believes the latest update to Grok has achieved artificial general intelligence. Glenn explores how artificial intelligence will impact everyday Americans' careers and how to keep up with the growing technology. Glenn lays out what President Trump's game plan is and the gamble he's making when it comes to handling inflation. Glenn takes calls from his listeners to get their opinions on inflation and AI.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Former NSC ChiefJohn Bolton could face a potential 20 years in prison after an FBI dawn raid at his home. Allegations swirl that this may be tied to classified documents Bolton allegedly took and later published in his controversial book. Kash Patel is weighing in — and the move signals there’s much more to come for those tied to the Obama-era “Obamagate” network. Meanwhile, Letitia James is reeling. Even CNN is admitting her case against President Trump was a disaster from the start — and that this latest ruling is a major Trump victory. And it doesn’t stop there… Dan Bongino, now Assistant Director at the FBI, had long warned these kinds of cases were coming. We look at what and who is next. Plus — Cracker Barrel is under fire — with calls for boycotts as its latest woke rebrand sparks backlash.

The CAC payback period is one of the most important SaaS metrics — and a top investor metric used in boardrooms, fundraising, and valuation discussions. But here's the nuance: which gross profit should you use when calculating it? In episode #307, Ben Murray explains why CAC payback must be gross margin adjusted and why using your company's total blended gross margin is a mistake. Instead, you'll learn how to align ARR, MRR, and revenue streams with their specific gross profit to get an accurate picture of sales efficiency and scalability. This lesson is especially critical for scaling SaaS and AI businesses as miscalculations here can distort your financial model, mislead investors, and even impact your company's valuation. What You'll Learn Why CAC payback is a must-have metric in your financial dashboard. The correct gross profit to use in CAC payback calculations. How to calculate CAC payback when you have multiple revenue streams (subscription, usage, services, hardware). Why large SaaS companies may need segmented CAC payback periods for different products or business units. How an accurate accounting foundation prevents “accounting debt” that complicates metrics and valuation later. Why It Matters Investors rely on CAC payback to judge efficiency and growth potential. Using the wrong gross profit skews results and undermines trust in your financial metrics. Clean accounting systems and segmentation enable accurate benchmarking, which strengthens your story in fundraising and valuation discussions. Resources Mentioned

Have you ever used your giving to steer decisions or send a message?It might seem harmless—or even wise—to designate your gift to specific ministries or withhold it when you disagree with leadership. But when our generosity becomes a tool for control, we've crossed a line. In this episode, we'll explore the subtle danger of using giving as leverage—and discover a better way rooted in surrender and trust.A Hidden Temptation in Church GivingLet's be honest—no one likes the word control when it's pointed at them. But in church life, this temptation surfaces more often than we'd like to admit.It might look like this:Giving only to certain ministries because you don't trust how the church allocates general funds.Withholding your giving when a leadership decision—like a staffing change or budget shift—doesn't sit well with you.Designating gifts to specific areas, not out of passion, but as a form of protest.On the surface, it may look like good financial stewardship. But beneath the surface, it's often an attempt to say, “I want things to go my way, and I'll use my money to make that happen.”That's not generosity. That's leverage. And Scripture warns us against it.The Corban Example: A Heart Check from JesusIn Mark 7, Jesus confronts the Pharisees for misusing a practice called Corban—a method of dedicating money or resources to God. While it sounded spiritual, the religious leaders were using it to dodge their responsibility to care for aging parents.As GotQuestions.org explains:“The Pharisees took a legitimate Corban offering and used it in an illegitimate and devious way to defraud their parents…Jesus tells the Pharisees that their misuse of Corban was an evil rationale to avoid doing what they should.”It wasn't the gift itself that Jesus condemned—it was the motive behind it.In the same way, when we give to maintain control or push our preferences, we're following the spirit of Corban. Even if our reasons sound righteous, they can mask a deeper issue: an unwillingness to surrender.From Leverage to Surrender: The Biblical CallThe Bible offers a better vision.Psalm 24:1 reminds us,“The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it.”That includes our finances. We don't give to direct the church. We give because God owns it all—and calls us to steward it faithfully.Consider the example in Acts 4. Believers sold land and possessions, then laid the proceeds at the apostles' feet. No strings attached. No demands were made about how it was to be used. Just trust, unity, and wholehearted surrender.Of course, that doesn't mean churches shouldn't be transparent or held accountable. Scripture calls leaders to wise and faithful stewardship. But giving with strings isn't about accountability—it's about control. And control is the opposite of trust.What's Driving Your Generosity?Ask yourself: What's driving my giving?Is it love for God?Faith in His provision?Worship and gratitude?Or is it something else?Preference?Power?Payback?When giving becomes conditional, it's no longer cheerful—it's contractual. We treat God's work like a business deal instead of a spiritual act of worship.But when we let go of control, something beautiful happens: we find peace. We no longer feel the pressure to manage every church decision. We can give freely, knowing God is at work—even when His ways don't align with our expectations.Moving Forward in Trust and GraceIf you realize that control has been influencing your giving, here are three steps to take:1. Confess it to the Lord. God is gracious and patient. Ask Him to realign your heart with His and help you give from a place of surrender.2. Release your preferences. You don't have to stop asking questions or seeking transparency. But your generosity shouldn't be tied to your personal comfort or preferences.3. Give with trust. Trust God's ability to work through imperfect people. Trust that when you give with the right heart, your gift brings Him glory.Because when we give to control, we place ourselves at the center. But when we give in faith, we put God at the center—where He belongs.A Resource for the JourneyWant to go deeper into the heart behind generosity?

He and his wife are behind on their bills, but we know they also spend on partying and things like marijuana. My husband feels emotionally pulled in, especially when his son talks about possibly losing their home. We want to be generous, but we don't want to enable irresponsible behavior. How can we approach this situation in a way that's wise and biblical?I'd like to assign someone as my power of attorney, but I don't have any family members I trust to take on that role. What options do I have in this situation?Is it wise to purchase life insurance for your children or grandchildren? What are the pros and cons?I'm thinking about getting a reverse mortgage to create some extra income. Can you explain how they work, and whether they're a good idea? I'd also like to know what risks or downsides I should be aware of.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Understanding Reverse: Simplifying the Reverse Mortgage by Dan HultquistWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.
